Joining Marvel with the Holy Lord System
Chapter 97 come to the door
"Well, I have to say, Pepper, I was really disappointed when you said you wouldn't cooperate with me. I remember my father often said, 'Failure is the fog on the road to success.'"
"It's so esoteric, I don't even understand what it means."
"I don't understand either. Maybe my father is too stupid. We will meet again, Pepper. We will."
After a kiss, Killian got in the car and left, leaving Pepper standing alone at the door of the building in a daze.
Aldrich Killian, although this name is not unfamiliar, it is indeed not very familiar. He is his former colleague. He has not seen him since he switched jobs to Stark Industries five years ago.
Pepper still has some impression of this former colleague. He wears glasses, has a slight limp on his feet, and looks unkempt. He is completely different from the current business elite.
Normally, Pepper would be quite surprised and then forget about him again.
But this time is different, because in his office, Killian has just introduced to himself a gene editing product that can be highly weaponized: the Extremis virus.
What’s even more coincidental is that this thing called the Extremis Virus happens to allow Killian to complete this gorgeous transformation, so now the question is, is this really just a coincidence?
"The car is ready, do you want to leave now?"
Just when Pepper was lost in thought, Happy suddenly asked this question, pulling Pepper back from her thoughts.
"Yeah, ah, I just, God, I actually forgot that I have other things to do, so I'll go first."
After saying that, Pepper opened the door of the building and walked in. Since she couldn't figure it out, she didn't want to think about it anymore. Although she didn't know much about this kind of high-tech technology, Pepper was an outstanding businessman. , she still realized something.
As a company that started out as a company relying on military contracts and has cooperated with the military for many years, Pepper knew very well how little those who didn't mind spending money on military industry didn't care about the opinions of others.
Although Tony thinks this kind of super warrior is immoral, the military only cares about its combat effectiveness. As long as its combat effectiveness is strong enough, they will spend a lot of money on it.
Killian described the effects of the Extremis virus as extremely powerful, but it was precisely because of its extreme power that Pepper was able to conclude that AIM (Pioneer Technology) had not been able to solve some of the problems of the Extremis virus.
If there is no problem with the Extremis virus, the military will provide everything Killian needs, and there is no reason for him to seek cooperation from Stark Industries.
Killian just said that they invited Tony nine years ago, which means that the desperate virus has not been developed in the past nine years. If that is the case, why should Pepper worry so much about this kind of thing?
To take a step back, so what if they develop it? Now that Stark Industries does not rely on military contracts to survive, competition does not exist at all, and it doesn't matter if something happens, after all, there are still three Avengers at home.
As an excellent businessman, there was nothing wrong with Pepper's thinking model, but she overlooked one thing, that is, Killian was no longer satisfied with being an entrepreneur. He was now an ambitious man.
"boom."
Killian closed the car door and said directly:
"Remember, Pepper, I want to live, others don't matter."
"Yes, sir."
After saying that, Eric Savin drove away from the Stark Industries Building.
After adjusting her mentality, Pepper drove his Audi A5 towards Malibu.
The journey of more than half an hour was always extremely fast. Driving on a sparsely populated road, Pepper even began to think about what meals Andy would prepare tonight.
Ever since Andy moved into Tony's house, he had been forced to take over the job of preparing dinner, and his main skill was indeed very good.
Bruce, who originally thought he was a little pitiful, quickly put away his pity after eating once. He even wanted Andy to shorten the cooking time from three days to two days, which was really too much.
Just as Pepper was daydreaming, she suddenly found a woman blocking the road in front of her and waving at her.
Subconsciously slowing down and driving next to the woman, Pepper lowered the window and asked:
"Need any help ma'am?"
Shaking her head, the woman replied:
"You are Pepper Potts, my name is Maya Hansen, I was a one-night stand that Tony had."
Hearing these extremely straightforward words, Pepper didn't know what to say for a moment.
From what this person meant, that night should have happened before she and Tony got together, so she didn't care too much. After all, she knew Tony's style very well, but it would definitely not feel good to be approached by such a person.
"So, are you trying to tell me that Tony has a kid who doesn't know how old he is?"
"No, no, no, you are thinking too much. If there is such a child, I cannot wait until he is 9 years old to come to you. I come to you for another reason. I think my boss has some problems, and he I just went to see you today."
today? Did you meet anyone today? Except for Killian, I didn’t see anyone else...
Pepper's pupils suddenly dilated when she realized who it was, and she subconsciously asked:
"Aldridge Killian? Is Killian your boss?"
Hearing this, Maya Hansen nodded vigorously, then pointed to a black jeep nearby and said:
"That's him. I have some very important documents here. You can decide whether you want to take me to your house after reading them."
Hearing Maya Hansen's words, Pepper suddenly understood why she didn't just go to Tony. As a combination of business tycoon and superhero, Tony had always protected his home address very well, so it was reasonable for her not to know.
Parking the car aside, Pepper got out of the car and walked towards the jeep, while asking:
"What problem did you find? Is Killian doing illegal human experiments?"
"No, I found out that Killian was colluding with terrorists, so I came to see Tony."
The two walked to the jeep. Pepper was extremely surprised when he heard this, and then asked:
"Terrorist? Mandarin? How do you know about this?"
"Because I was also involved in the plan."
The moment Maya Hansen opened the car door, a hand suddenly stretched out from inside, grabbed Pepper's neck tightly, turned around and pushed her into the car.
A few minutes later, inside Stark's villa.
"Sir, Miss Potts' car has been parked there for fifteen minutes."
Hearing Jarvis's words, the three people who were clearing the table stopped, and Tony's expression changed.
This is a safety system that Tony set up for Pepper. It can monitor Pepper's vehicle in real time through satellites. If it finds that it has deviated or stopped driving for a long time, it will automatically alert Tony.
Of course, Pepper also wanted privacy. She couldn't let Tony spy on her, so this security system was usually only activated when she was driving to and from get off work. Of course, Pepper also activated it when she came back today.
"Retrieve in-car voice and satellite image recordings of Pepper's vehicle after it was parked."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jarvis began to play the voice and turned the satellite image recording into a 3D projection for display in front of everyone.
After hearing the words "one-night stand partner", Andy and Bruce were a little embarrassed, because they also thought it would be an emotional drama, but when they heard the next three words, they realized something was wrong.
Not only that, everyone also heard some other sounds.
"Did you hear it? It sounded like a propeller."
Not only Bruce, but also Andy and Tony heard the sound. Looking out along the sound, everyone suddenly discovered that in addition to the sound of the propeller, there were six things with fire and smoke flying towards the villa.
missile! Six missiles!
Just as these missiles were about to hit the villa, six two- to three-meter-thick earth walls suddenly appeared and blocked the six missiles. Andy also completed the transformation into his Digui form at the same time.
"I'll get the helicopter. You quickly check Pepper's whereabouts. Bruce, control yourself."
